>removes a lot of processing from our CP processors.

<pedantry>
All processors are CP's.
It stands for Central Processor.
They used to be called CPU's, but the US Federal Government came up with a 
requirement that anything called a 'unit' could be purchased separately.
(Speaking of pedantry...)
So, IBM went with CP for the engines an Central Electronic Complex (CEC) for 
the box.
CP's that are not specialty engines are GP's.
General Processors.
